{Tricky Trends} And How To Master Them

It's nice to be able to say that you know which trends are in and which celebrity is wearing what but even the most seasoned fashionista has at least one of these trends that they simply don't know how in the haides to pull off! For me it's patterned leggings. I'm not sure why, but each time I have attempted to wear them I feel as if I just can't pull them off. But, my friends... I'm here to help and give you some great tips on pulling off those tricky  trends that just seem downright impossible! 


Patterned Leggings
 
You don't have to be any certain height, shape, or body type to pull this tricky trend off; you simply need confidence and a great pair that you feel comfortable in! Patterned leggings are worn best with tunics, slouchy sweaters, and over-sized tee's. You're also going to want to stay away from pairing them with anything sheer (keep your top half opaque) and mixing them with too many colors. Your leggings are the ones making the statement here so you don't want to wear a top that takes away from that! Here is a great example of a simple boho look wearing patterned leggings.

See-Through Tops
 
Lace, tulle, mesh, and chiffon are starting to make an appearance as the spring season gets closer and you might be wondering how in the world you can pull this off?! I'm here to tell you that sheer does not have to equal skimpy! When styling a see-through top, think about the occasion. Is it a night out? casual? Pair your top with a cami or bralette (which are a bit too skimpy to wear on their own) and a pair of high-waisted jeans/shorts or leggings (to cover your mid-section) for that perfect, classy spring/summer look! Just be cognizant of the color you choose to wear underneath as you won't want to come off like you've just stepped behind an x-ray ;)

Big Floppy Hats

Floppy hats are chic and not to mention very practical! Their wide brims protect your eyes from the sunlight and they can also cover up your dirty 3rd day hair ;) however, despite all the advantages to wearing these gorgeous pieces they are BIG and you might feel super awkward wearing such a large, bold statement piece..let alone a karge, bold statement on your head of all places! But there are a TON of styles that would meet the needs of literally everyone! First things first...find one that fits properly! A proper fitting hat should allow about two fingers width of room between the middle of your forehead and the hat. Next, work on finding one that fits your style, pick the right material, and also pay attention to your posture while wearing it.

Hope these little tricks of the trade help you wear something that you've been dying to try out but might not know exactly how to pull off :)
 
Had a great day mermaids!
